Hello
It might not be possible to perform the surgery with such low, hemoglobin levels
Please consult the general physician and try to increase iron intake
The tooth can be extracted once the levels are normal

As per your Hb level, you are severely anemic.
Surgical procedures are avoided in such case.
Use pain killers for the pain in the mean time and get your HB level up.
If still there is pain and extraction is the only solution, consult your physician for alternative ways that can be undertaken in extreme situations.
